Miami’s New Center Jamaal Magloire Gets Injured
During a pre-season game on October 9th against the New Jersey Nets, Jamaal Magloire suffered a fracture of the third metacarpal in his left hand during the third quarter. Magloire was taken to a hospital for x-rays which confirmed the fracture. Due to the game being out of the country, Magloire will get reevaluated upon his return to Miami.
Jamaal was signed by the Heat on September 2nd of this year and has career averages of 47% field goal shooting, 8.6 point per game, 7.2 rebounds per game, 1.0 blocks per game and 0.7 assists per game.
The 6′ 11″ center has now played for a total of 7 different teams in 8 years total of being in the NBA. This is not a good start for him in Miami. Jamaal has many talents and needs to get in a stationary role where he can become stable and make an impact on the Heat’s team.
